Our soundbar will make a random beep while playing TV audio. Only the soundbar makes the beep, neither of the play:1's serving as a left and right speaker make the noise.

OP, you are not alone. I get the same result randomly, particularly while watching cable tv. It happened yesterday where after each channel change it would beep. Power cycled the devices and it stopped. Today it occurred again after attempting to load a recorded show off my dvr. It beeped at the start of the show.

The beeps are singular and have so far only occurred during cable tv.

How often does it occur? Anything else you can plug the PLAYBAR into, just to test whether it gives out the same sound?

Send a diagnostic and reply here with the confirmation number please.

There are settings on some Samsung TV's that cause beeps to happen on Channel changes or volume up/down changes. Maybe that is what is beeping? In an older Samsung , the setting can be found here.....(but check your TV to see if there is a similar setting on your model)...
Its called- Sound Feedback (from an older Samsung manual)
Screen Menu > System > General > Sound Feedback Try Now
Adjust the sound feedback volume or disable it entirely. Sound feedback is an audio cue that plays
when you move the focus or make a selection.

So perhaps your TV has a similar setting, and it got set by mistake- and 'resetting everything' as some of you did to fix, turned off that setting...? maybe?
